Daisies Danny's Daring Dance Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Danny was a small daisy in a field of tall ones. "I wish I could see over the grass," he thought. The wind began to blow. Whooosh! The other daisies held on tight, but Danny was so small and light that the wind lifted him up! "Whoa!" he cried.

Instead of being scared, Danny decided to have fun. He let the wind push him left, and he leaned left. He let the wind push him right, and he leaned right. He was dancing! Sway, sway, sway.

Plot Twist: A little field mouse who was lost saw Danny’s bright white head dancing above the grass. The mouse followed the dancing daisy all the way back to his mouse hole. Danny wasn't just dancing; he was a friendly lighthouse!

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The design is fantastic for ages 3-5. The clear depiction of movement through motion lines is easy for children to interpret. The contrast in size between the 'small' daisy and the 'tall' grass is a simple visual concept. The focus on a single, happy character (Danny) makes the emotion of the scene very clear and positive.
